Felix Miata:
The problem with software documentation wikis is the people in best
position to know what they should contain have no incentive to do the
update work. To write useful docs requires knowledge what should be in
them. That knowledge is mostly possessed by those writing and changing
code, those who /caused/ the need to update docs.
Brian:
Knowledge is confined to those who know what they are doing? They are
the ones in charge? It is not for us ordinary mortals to spread or
interpret it? Some politians and priests are with you. Disseminating
knowledge is only for the few.
That is a straw man, and very clearly (to at least this reader) not what
M. Miata wrote at all.
